Interesting. I did a clean checkout when Stas' message came through and can't reproduce the problem here.
Stas, is yours a cygwin-reliant exe?
Erm, not sure what you mean here.
I meant 'does it rely on cygwin1.dll or is it native'?
I downloaded re2c.exe from sourceforge release, did checkput of 5.3, buildconf and configure. Since configure now produces RE2C_FLAGS=null in makefile, build failed. After removing that line, build worked.
Mine worked from scratch... I'm not sure which is weirder :)
